I had to raise my car up to get on the exhaust shop lift to have a catalytic put in (which I will take out tomorrow) and when I lowered it back down, with everything in the same position, the rear is like 1/2" higher than befoar... pisses me off :U gonna see if I can get it to come down some moar tomorrow.

so I was driving to work one day, and I noticed my car running hot, so I fill the radiator up with water (it's a ritual, I knew the radiator was going out and had a slow leak) but when I go the radiator about 85% filled, I noticed the water I was pouring in going right back out the front, so I drove home like a bawse and she didn't overheat

anyways, got a radiator from the junkyard, cleaned it up and painted it, then removed the one from my car and cleaned up most of the crap left over from the radiator spewing all over the engine bay.

pictars as always:
YEEEE!
idk why I didn't replace this earlier, looks like ass
some of the mess left over:

WELL THERE'S YOAR PROBLEM!

old and ugly
don't jack yoar car up by the lower radiator mount.

"new" rad all ready to go in and stuff
close up of the color, I REALLY LIKE THIS.
best cell phone pictar I got of everything back in since I'm too lazy to go out and take moar pictars right meow, that, and it's dark outside lol (even though I did this yesterday :U )

just curious... how's the ride quality with the coil-over sleeves in the front? spring rates? manufacturer? and where did you get them from? I'm about to do the same to my z31 and I'm looking to go as low as you with out spending full-on-coilover-money...

yeah I've looked and searched everywhere on this subject... I've seen the S9 / stance set ups, those all look really good and function extremely well i'm sure. I really dont wanna spend that kinda money but eh... I will if I have to. lowering this thing isn't gonna be as easy as my old 82 maxima lol I just wanted your thoughts and details on your sleeves and relate that to doing it on my z. I've never seen another z car running coil over sleeves, I knew its way cheap, and doesn't mess with the stock geometery very much while giving you a nice SLAM lol. I've even been looking through honda forums trying to figure out what the strut tube diameters are that way I'd know what sleeve kit to order that would fit the z's strut tubes lol

car is looking great bro! I'm diggin the purple / gold details under the hood now
